| You've finished your novel! How do you make sure you have a good character arc, strong story structure, good pacing? How can you smooth over rough writing patches, eliminate episodic writing, or increase emotional intensity? My Self-Editing worksheet combines a variety of techniques that I have taught in online workshops into one place, with tips to help you refine and polish your manuscript. By the end of the worksheet you'll have: 1) A good large-scale view of your story structure and character arc, and knowledge about how to fix any problems in that area 2) Tips for how to revise more emotion into your writing 3) Tools for solving pacing issues 4) A deeper look at technical writing errors to look for in your writing 5) An understanding of your own strengths and weaknesses in terms of critiquing yourself This 69-page worksheet consists of lessons, homework, and fun exercises for you to apply various types of self-editing on your manuscript. You'll learn lots of simple techniques to help you revise and tighten your manuscript to be the best it can be. Note: I made this worksheet originally for a class I was asked to teach. This is essentially the shortened versions of both my Deep Point of View worksheet and my Characterization worksheet. This contains about 60% of what's in my Deep POV worksheet, and about 70% of what's in my Characterization worksheet. Both of those worksheets go into more depth about Deep POV and Characterization, so if they both interest you, you'll get more information and instruction if you buy those two separately. However, if you want more bang for your buck, this worksheet is like the abridged versions of those two worksheets combined into one worksheet. Just be aware that this will contain much of the same stuff rather than being all-new material. |
